Have the Democrats & MSM stepped into another trap? One created by their own TDS?
If Trump can be blamed for Iran accidentally shooting down a Ukrainian jet, can't Obama be blamed for Russia accidentally shooting down a jetliner over Ukraine?
The Obama State Dept. started that...

Weren't the victims on MH17 caught up in an unnecessary & unwanted military tit for tat in eastern Ukraine? What started that conflict? The Obama Admin toppling the government of Ukraine & triggering Putin's response.

Weren't the 298 victims on Malaysian Airlines Flight 17 also caught in the crossfire?

Weren't their deaths part of the national security risk analysis of supporting the revolution in Ukraine?

Weren't they a risk associated with triggering a Russian response in that tit for tat?

I'm sure there is some "all is well" talking point we could have used during the Ukraine debacle. Surely the #MH17 shootdown was related to the crossfire triggered when Obama's State Department engaged in regime change in Ukraine. Ht @SpicyNoodles2

Had Obama's regime change not happened, Crimea & eastern Ukraine would not have been invaded. Those SAM missiles wouldn't have been scanning the skies for planes to shoot down.

Let's see if the world wants to sanction Iran for accidentally shooting down a Ukrainian airliner like they sanctioned Russia for accidentally shooting one down over Ukraine.

Or are sanctions solely biased upon whether the media wants to blame the US president for the incident?

Now don't take this to mean that I think Obama is to blame for MH17, he wasn't. The Russians & their Ukrainian allies are to blame.

Just like the Iranians are to blame for shooting down UIA PS 752!

But if Dems want to blame Presidents for the actions of America's enemies...

It is only fair that they remember that Obama's engagement in tit for tat actions & the overthrow of the Ukrainian government are what lead to the #MH17 shootdown too!

It is even possible that Trump set this up with is "all is well" tweet. Because in 2015 John Schindler described Susan Rice going out & telling everyone that it's the Obama policy debacle is better than it looks. In "remain call, all is well!" fashion. 20committee.com/2015/02/08/is-…

He was even worried that Obama was going to collapse NATO because he was so weak while France & Germany were all but colluding with the Russian to appease Putin.

With realistic NATO leaders knowing that Ukraine required arming to deter Russia. But Obama refused to arm them.

Never realizing that weakly imposing sanctions might increase Russian aggression.
So in 2015, NATO was collapsing. NATO was appeasing Putin. NATO was telling the Baltic States it might not honor it's treaty obligations & protect them from Russian attack.

How has NATO been saved? By Trump criticizing the Putin appeasers enough that they actually promised to defend themselves as directed by defense spending within the NATO treaty.

NATO was falling apart in 2015, but no more. Trump has stopped Putin's expansion by doing what @20committee recommended. Arming Ukraine (now it's impeachable not to arm them), getting NATO to rearm, & showing a backbone against the Russians instead of appeasing them.

@20committee Schindler wasn't the only one to accuse Susan Rice & Obama of this. Stephen M. Walt described the 2015 National Security Strategy as nothing more than false assertions that all is well! midcoastforum.org/wp-content/upl…
